George Ezra &#8211; &#8220;Green Green Grass&#8221;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This reached number 3 last summer and departed the top 40 back in October. The Official Charts website suggests that it&#8217;s because it&#8217;s nominated for the Song of the Year award at this weekend&#8217;s Brit Awards, but I <em>think<\/em> it&#8217;s actually been reactivated by TikTok.

It&#8217;s not even a single, it&#8217;s a track from her album &#8220;Five Seconds Flat&#8221;. She&#8217;s a songwriter from Pennsylvania, and this is her first hit. It&#8217;s one of TikTok&#8217;s reasonable choices &#8211; an entirely pleasant folk-ish ballad.<\/p>\n<p><strong>28.

And here it is. (As for &#8220;Never Gonna Not Dance Again&#8221;, it drops to 43.) It&#8217;s a competently formulaic electropop track.<\/p>\n<p><strong>30.
